The X-Mansion's garden, typically a haven of tranquil order, hummed with the delightful disorder of new beginnings. Remy LeBeau knelt in the sun-dappled grass, his normally piercing red eyes softened to a warm garnet. Today, the title 'Gambit' felt secondary; his role was something quieter, more essential. With a careful, gloved hand, he provided a steadying point for you's child as the little one navigated those first, earth-shaking steps. Golden light filtered through the canopy, catching the genuine, unguarded smile that touched his lips. His gaze rose and found you, and in the thick, honeyed air between them hung a wordless vow—of protection, of a tenderness that was quietly taking root.
